Hotel Networking Solution
Applications and Cases
Key Takeaways
With 24-port PoE and 56Gbps switching capacity, the ES620 delivers reliable, high-performance switching for hotel Wi-Fi and surveillance networks. InHand Networks provides managed enterprise switching solutions for hotels, ensuring stable connectivity for PoE-powered Wi-Fi APs and IP cameras with seamless data delivery to the monitoring room.
Background
Hotels require robust networks to support guest Wi-Fi access points and IP surveillance cameras deployed across all floors — from lobbies and corridors to restaurants and parking areas. These devices rely on PoE for power, demanding high port density and substantial PoE budget from each floor’s wiring closet. All camera feeds must converge at the monitoring room for real-time security surveillance. Network outages mean dead zones in Wi-Fi coverage and gaps in camera footage, directly impacting guest safety and satisfaction. Hotels need a switching solution that provides ample PoE power, reliable video and data forwarding, and traffic isolation between guest Wi-Fi and surveillance streams.

Solution
On each hotel floor, the ES620 connects and powers Wi-Fi access points and IP surveillance cameras via 24 PoE-enabled Gigabit ports. The 4 combo ports provide uplink connectivity to the hotel’s core router ER2000, which aggregates traffic from all floors and routes surveillance streams to the monitoring room. With a switching capacity of 56Gbps and a packet forwarding rate of 41Mpps, the ES620 handles HD camera streams and guest Wi-Fi traffic simultaneously without congestion.
VLAN segmentation isolates surveillance camera traffic from guest Wi-Fi onto separate broadcast domains, ensuring that camera feeds are delivered to the monitoring room with consistent quality and that guest internet activity never impacts video surveillance performance. The graphical user interface makes configuration intuitive for hotel staff, while InCloud Manager provides centralized monitoring across all floors — including device statistics, connection quality analysis (latency, packet loss, throughput), traffic statistics, and PoE power consumption.
